EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE
The motorhome is subject to a great deal of outside conditions. When parked, the motorhome is
exposed to extreme temperatures, humidity, ultraviolet rays, acid rain and other organic environmental
conditions. While in operation the motorhome is subject to twisting and flexing caused by rough roads,
potholes and winding mountain roads. Maintenance is necessary to keep the exterior looking nice and
to keep in proper working order.
Fiberglass
Inspect
the fiberglass exterior. Periodic inspection may reveal that flexing of the fiberglass exte-
rior has created imperfections in the surface commonly known as "spider" or "hairline" cracks. A crack
that has opened up to reveal of weave of cloth threatens the integrity of the fiberglass. If the exterior
exhibits signs of damage, prevent moisture penetration, particularly in freezing climates. Cover the
area using plastic sheeting or tape, and have the damaged fiberglass repaired as soon as possible.
Roof Care & Seal Inspections
Periodic resealing of the joints and seams is necessary to prevent the entrance of moisture into the
motorhome. Enough emphasis cannot be placed on this issue. Extreme damage from a water leak can
rapidly occur. Never leave the vehicle unattended with a slide room extended. If the motorhome is to
be stored outdoors during the winter months, perform a full interior inspection for water leaks every
two weeks.
Extensive sealing has been done at the factory, but the normal twisting and flexing that occurs while
traveling may compromise a seal or a seam. Inspect all joints and seams at least twice each year, and
replace caulking as necessary. Special attention should be directed toward the roof air condition seals,
ceiling and plumbing vents, skylights, roof mounted antennas, windows, door molding, clearance
lights and beltline molding.
Specific sealant products, available at most RV supply outlets, should be used in most areas for
which they are designed. Listed below are some common sealants and the areas in for which they are
designed.
INSPECT:
All joints and seams should be inspected at least twice a year and recalked as nec-
essary.
WARNING:
Some products may contain hazardous materials which require special handling.
Read labels carefully. Follow all product manufacturer safety requirements.
